"You're pregnant, how could he dare?"
Chen Yifei stood up, recalling the tragedy of his past life, and now he could no longer bear it.
He kicked the door open, starting to kick the locked room door.
The room door, which was already dilapidated, was now broken in two.
"Zhuang Ziqiang, get out here!"
"Your grandfather is here."
To their surprise, Zhuang Ziqiang wasn't there when they kicked the door open, but the window was open, so they didn't know if he had run away through the window.
Those who were watching the commotion have all returned.
He leaned closer and said:
"Don't hit me! If you do, you'll end up in jail."
"They're from different generations, aren't they? Chen Yifei is causing trouble again. How did he become Zhuang Ziqiang's father? Isn't Zhuang Ziqiang his brother-in-law? Haha."
"This is going to be interesting. Wait a minute, Zhuang Ziqiang's sister and parents have all rushed back from the brigade. We don't know where Zhuang Ziqiang has gone."
"Chen Yifei, no matter what, don't hit people! Let's talk this out. You started by cursing your brother-in-law. You're still acting like a rascal!"
"..."
"Get the hell out of here."
Chen Yifei pointed at this "rationalist" and said, "My sister was beaten up like this, and you expect me to be reasonable?"
"Shut up! If you keep causing trouble and acting all high and mighty, I'll grab a shovel and smash your house to pieces, you believe me?"
"..."
Immediately, the surrounding area fell silent.
He Runqing was also stunned. Was this a different side of Chen Yifei?
She thought... she thought men who stood up for their families were really cool.
(*?▽?*)
Chen Yifei understood this principle very well. Many people do nothing but like to boss others around, and he didn't know where they got the courage from.
He always has a very fatherly air about him.
He's not afraid; he'll be the father of anyone who says anything.
Chen Yifei continued, "Every wrong has its perpetrator, and every debt its debtor. My sister has been wronged in your village. Zhuang Ziqiang, have the courage to come out and face your fate."
“He came out, knelt down and apologized to my sister, and took her to the hospital so she could stay there every day to give birth to the baby.”
Chen Shuang stood there somewhat bewildered, completely at a loss for what to do.
She just kept crying.
We've been married for so long, I'm used to being hit.
It's so nice to have family backing me up now.
He Runqing asked, "Sister, do you know where Zhuang Ziqiang went?"
"I don't know... He was definitely lying in bed just now."
Chen Shuang was in a dilemma.
Chen Yifei wasn't in a hurry: "Wait, if you don't dare come back, just give this house to us. My parents and I helped you set it up back then."
"Don't even think about coming back!"
"Ouch..."
Just then, Zhuang Ziqiang's mother and sister returned.
Mrs. Zhuang looked at Chen Yifei with obvious disdain: "What are you doing here causing trouble at our house?"
"What do you want with my son? Does your Chen family have no manners at all? I get annoyed just looking at poor people like you."
I initially thought that since Chen's father was the brigade leader, his family must be well-off. Later, I also found that Chen Shuang's dowry was quite good.
but……
Chen Yifei is a spendthrift; he needs money everywhere. He's a spendthrift son of the Chen family.
So the Chen family had long been emptied out.
Chen's mother looked down on this good-for-nothing hoodlum.
"Where's Zhuang Ziqiang?" Chen Yifei asked impatiently.
“My son is definitely busy making money! Our family is nothing like yours, where we raise you, Chen Yifei, like a cripple.”
"Chen Yifei, you've taken your wild ways to our home. Have I been too lenient with you?"
Haha, he just reformed; it's not like he doesn't have a criminal record from his past as a hoodlum.
Now that I'm in the mood...
There's no need to reason with them.
"Face? Look at your face, it's practically flying in the sky! Your face is so thin it looks like a pig. What are you yelling about?"
“Zhuang Ziqiang, come out and face your death. You old woman and Zhuang Ziqiang’s sister, kneel down and kowtow to my sister ten times. If you apologize profusely, I might spare your lives.”
"..."
Grandma Zhuang was so angry that her face turned pale and then red.
Zhuang Ziqiang's sister ran in and saw the peach shortbread on the table.
She said incredulously, "Mom! Chen Shuang stole our peach shortbread for her younger brother and sister-in-law."
"How shameless! Chen Shuang is a real thief."
Chen Shuang, who had been standing behind her younger brother, was a little confused and said incredulously, "I...stole something?"
"This was brought by Yifei. Don't push your luck."
With tears streaming down her face, she said, "And... how come I didn't know we had peach shortbread at home?"
Yes, Chen Shuang found it really funny. She was trembling all over.
“Sister-in-law, you must have known we were hiding in the cupboard, so you took them all out for your brother to eat. The packaging is exactly the same.”
"She always thinks of her parents' home. When your brother gets into fights and causes trouble, she goes back every few days to check on him and cook for him."
"When did you ever do anything for our family?"
"My brother is incredibly unlucky to have married you."
More and more neighbors came to watch the spectacle.
But Chen Shuang just found it funny.
“Whenever I leave, I always make sure to cook a meal at home before going back to my parents’ house. When have you ever given me a single penny? When has the money that Ziqiang and I earn not been handed over to you as public funds?”
With tears in her eyes, she said, "I don't have money for my younger brother. Can't I even go home to check on my parents' health, and for my younger brother and sister?"
"I take care of my younger brother and my parents. Does that mean that if I marry someone, I can't have my own parents and family for the rest of my life?"
"Don't go too far, Aunt, Mom..."
